This is a high‑impact leadership opportunity for a nonprofit finance professional who thrives in environments that require structure, accountability, and process improvement.
The ideal candidate is confident stepping into complexity, taking ownership, and building scalable systems.

The organization operates multiple legal entities that roll into a consolidated audit, with each entity requiring its own audit process. Leadership is seeking a seasoned finance leader who can take full ownership of the audit cycle, drive accountability, and implement disciplined processes to ensure timeliness and accuracy.

This role will work onsite to centralize financial documentation and create organized, accessible systems that reduce dependency on any one individual and improve transparency across the organization.

• Strengthen internal controls, documentation practices, and financial processes

• Centralize financial records into an accessible, organization-wide system

• Partner with leadership to improve reporting accuracy and transparency

• 7+ years of progressive accounting/finance experience

• Strong nonprofit audit experience required

• HUD experience strongly preferred

• Demonstrated ability to clean up and streamline financial operations

• Experience managing multi-entity financial structures

• Yardi experience preferred

• Strong leadership presence with the ability to work cross‑functionally

• Comfortable working onsite in a document-heavy environment

• Onsite/Hybrid in Portland, OR

• 40 hours per week (with potential to flex slightly during lighter periods)

  This is an opportunity to make a meaningful impact within a mission‑driven organization by bringing clarity, structure, and strong financial leadership at a critical time.

  If you are a nonprofit finance professional who enjoys building systems and owning the audit process from start to finish, we would welcome the opportunity to connect.
